KARLOW first said he was unable to recall visiting

Berlin in 1953 but later said he recalled seeing WILLIAM K, HARVEY,

Chief of Station, (December, 1952, to August, 1959) on more than

one occasion so he supposes he did make such visits. When
informed that it was understood that KARLOW had been to Berlin

ten to fifteen times in the period 1950 - 1953, ‘KARLOW offered

no objection and said it was possible that this was true, With

reference to his later assignment in Munich from November, 1953,

to the end of 1955, KARLOW stated sof fairly certain he had

not visited Berlin during this period
